Planning The Class



We’ll start the semester with a viewing of Ridley Scott’s first feature film The Duellists, and then proceed to the following texts in an order I haven’t quite fathomed or fashioned yet:

Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing;
Rostand’s Cyrano de Bergerac;
Byron’s Selected Poems;
143 rather short poems; 
a handful of stories by de Maupassant;
a handful of tales by Poe;
Shelley’s Frankenstein;
and Hammett’s The Maltese Falcon.
